Apex Legends Season 4: Assimilation Trailer Breakdown

Apex Legends Season 4: Assimilation Trailer Breakdown

However, she is most clutch as a team player, granting an escape route via her ultimate in almost any situation. Whether pinned inside a building or trying to escape sniper fire outside in the open, Dimensional Rift is a life-saving ability that puts Wraith above the rest of the champi

If someone told you that they spent the last few days questing to obtain the Thong of Virtue, you would likely call them insane. Yet that is what Deathspank is all about. This parody of typical aRPG titles sets players on an epic quest to find the Artifact, a bacon-looking heirloom with unimaginable po

This isn’t the game’s first Season 4 teaser — who could forget Forge's untimely death or Revenant’s role in a brutal bloodbath ? — but it’s players’ first look at what they can expect when they drop into Worlds Edge after the season beg

With void walking capabilities and Dimensional Rift at her disposal, it is not hard to see why Wraith ranks in at number two on a map that requires mobility. Gaining the high ground and Respawn Entertainment Shooter escaping a disadvantageous fight is the name of the game on World’s Edge. Phasing out of danger or into a flanking position is where Wraith excels at the individual le

But The Walking Dead proved the world loves a good zombie show. A game series like CoD: Zombies provides a ton of material, which someone like J.J. Abrams could helm with a mix of suspense and terror that people have come to love. And, while not always extremely coherent, the intersecting timelines and high-stakes decisions that comprised the Aether timeline are worthy of a spot on Netflix’s programming sl

An evolution of the characters and scenarios set up in the Titanfall series, this lore-rich battle royale features a diverse cast of characters with unique motivations and backstories. The Apex Games bring them together as they form teams of three to fight to become the Apex Champions. Their fight for glory is full of sci-fi action, spy operations, mystery and mystique. While there’s plenty to explore in Bloodhound’s dark past or the life-altering experiences that led Bangalore to join the Apex Games, we’d also be happy with a sitcom exploring Mirage’s search for love... and the perfect pork chop rec

There’s no game franchise more ripe for a live-action television show than The Legend of Zelda . The series has more than enough material to adapt into an episodic program as Link explores all of Hyrule. Through quests, puzzles and beautiful storytelling, it would be surreal to tune into Netflix to watch our protagonist set out to take on Ganon over several seas

You can revive them on your end, rather than fend off the chaos. This is also a great way to help out teammates that might otherwise bleed out from the Ring. If they’re out of health, they can still crawl through Wraith’s portal to survive even lon

At the new incarnation of Geyser, which looks far more desolate than before, Revenant shows off the new bolt-action sniper rifle. Called the Sentinel, it purportedly has some type of charge mechanic, though it will be hard to understand how it differs from a weapon such as the Charge Rifle until players can test it on their

Dead Space combined the creepiness that Resident Evil 4 presented with an industrial sci-fi setting that was rarely used back then. Dead Space 2 is arguably a perfect sequel. It improved on the clunky mechanics from the first game, improved the visual quality, level design, weapon arsenal, enemy design, you name it— Dead Space 2 improved

Apex Legends is the result of careful balance tweaks from the masterfully made Titanfall 2 , combined with typical gameplay systems all come to expect from a Battle Royale . But that is selling this game short. The inclusion of unique character abilities and squads helps this BR title stand above the r

Star Wars might be going through a rough patch with the new trilogy of movies, but the video games released under this IP have been dynamite the last few years. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is, for lack of a better phrase, Uncharted in Star Wars . That sells it short of its engaging combat and excellent character building , but the core gameplay loop of exploration followed by epic fights bears a striking resemblance between the two ga

The Call of Duty games generally showcase immersive and intruging storytelling. The Modern Warfare series is, as a whole, clever and unpredictable, giving players the types of moments that cause their stomachs to sink or that bring tears to their eyes. Black Ops does this as well, doing so with creative weaponry that allows for diversity in gamep

Set in a universe that people frequently compare to that of The Witcher anyway , it’s draws on a hero’s journey where factions, decisions and relationships all contribute to a broader narrative. While it would no doubt be difficult to sum up the events of Dragon Age into hour-long episodes over the course of a few seasons, there’s so much material in this universe worthy of exploration. Especially when it comes to addressing the role of religion and issues such as class oppression within a modern context, a Dragon Age show could help facilitate understanding today's confli
